Sullivan’s Island SC is probably the area’s most desired public beach communities because it’s not gated, it’s quiet, and it has its own little town feeling where you can drive your golf cart around once on the island. Mount Pleasant, the close suburbia town just on the other side of the Ben Sawyer bridge is close enough that the homeowners of Sullivan’s Island can get off the island for a night on the town, bite to eat at a nice restaurant, see a movie, or go shopping without any hassle. Prices for homes on Sullivan’s island start in the $500’s for a small virtually never available condo to well over $5 Million for beachfront homes on Sullivan’s Island or waterfront property. Don’t get too excited as there are only a few condos on the entire island. Once considered one of the most expensive per capita places to live in the U.S., Sullivan’s Island homes rarely come to market because the demand is so high, and thus property values remain high, and oceanfront homes usually only total a few at most on the market at any given time.

KIAWAH ISLAND GOLF RESORT
If you haven’t ever been to Kiawah Island I suggest you at least visit it once in your life as it truly is one of the most beautiful places you’ll ever see. So it’s no wonder that there are many celebrities that own homes in the luxury gated resort community of Kiawah. Beachfront homes on Kiawahcan start as high as $5 Million, and so can a lot without a home built. Just like you’d expect there are condos on such a palatial resort too, and luckily the beachfront condos on Kiawah are more affordable. There are pricey costs associated with buying homes on Kiawah Island that one must consider if you aren’t used to owning in a high-end luxury environment. With this being one of the United States most exclusive gated communities there are fees and dues that aren’t standard in a traditional neighborhood.

SEABROOK ISLAND
Considered the “sister” of Kiawah, Seabrook Island is right next to Kiawah and is also a gated private community that offers two golf courses, tennis courts, stunning beaches, club facilities, and more. Comprised of more regular full-time residents than it’s sister island, Seabrook is considerably more affordable but doesn’t offer quite as much luxury as Kiawah, but unlike Kiawah, Seabrook Island has true deep waterfront homes. The club membership on Seabrook Island is also more affordable and offer oceanfront pools, dining, and is home to the only full-service beach community equestrian center, but it is required here, whereas on Kiawah they are not. Seabrook like Kiawah Island has condos & villas in addition to beachfront homes.

EDISTO ISLAND BEACH
The furthest away from Charleston, Edisto is between Hilton Head and Charleston. It’s the least developed, and more quiet of all the SC beach communities, and still offers owners a nice standard of living for the coastal lifestyle. Also, the most affordable of the “Charleston” beachfront communities, Edisto beachfront homes won’t provide their residents much in the way of entertainment or activities other than standard water associated things such as boating, fishing, crabbing, etc. Edisto Island is a much smaller beach and waterfront community similar to Beaufort SC (but with a real beach).
